The mechanics of cephalic furrow formation in the Drosophila embryo

N. A. Redowan, M. C. Holcomb, J. H. Thomas, J. Blawzdziewicz

This study investigates the mechanical processes of cephalic furrow formation in Drosophila embryos using a vertex model, revealing key features of cell shape changes and mechanical feedback mechanisms.

Mechanical Feedback and Robustness of Apical Constrictions in Drosophila Embryo Ventral Furrow Formation

M. C. Holcomb, G.-J. J. Gao, M. Servati, D. Schneider, P. K. McNeely, J. H. Thomas, J. Blawzdziewicz

The paper quantitatively analyzes apical constrictions in Drosophila embryos and shows they follow predictions of an active-granular-fluid model, demonstrating robustness through tensile feedback.

Genome-Wide Search for Candidate Drivers of Adaptation Reveals Genes Enriched for Shifts in Purifying Selection (SPurS)

A. B. Popejoy, D. Domanska, J. H. Thomas

The paper develops a method to identify genes enriched for shifts in purifying selection between mammalian and non-mammalian species, suggesting they are candidate drivers of adaptation.
